Speaker Presentation Timer vs Podium

No longer do you have to pull yourself away from your audience to check the time. You no longer have to ask, "How am I doing for time?" nor, "How much time do I have left?" In theatre, stage actors can never break the 4th wall. The 4th wall is the imaginary wall between the actor and the audience. Professional Speakers have the same limitation. Every time you look at your watch or run to the lectern to check your time, you pull yourself from the audience and their needs. You are essentially going from "I am being of service to you!" to "I am up here doing my job - and oh, yea, I have 5 minutes left!" You can set Speaker Presentation Timer and the Pro Speaker Presentation Timer to prompt individual components of your speech and stealthily vibrate in your pocket (or on your watch) as you reach your critical sections. With Pro Speaker Presentation Timer, only you will know you're on stage with a job to do.

Podium keeps speakers on time—without breaking your flow. Build a talk from timed segments, hit start, and your countdown follows you everywhere: a full-screen podium view you can read from the lectern, your Apple Watch, the Lock Screen, and the Dynamic Island. Color zones shift from green to gold to red as your time runs down, so you feel your pacing without staring at numbers. GLANCE FROM ANYWHERE • Live Activity on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, with Pause, Skip, and +1 minute controls • Apple Watch app mirrors the run on your wrist—zone colors, what's next, and a haptic nudge before time's up • Podium mode: a big, glanceable countdown built for the stage BUILT FOR REAL TALKS • Split any talk into timed segments—intro, demo, Q&A—and always see what's next • +1 minute when the room runs long, without losing the thread • Optionally, overrun can keep counting so you know exactly how far past you are Whether you're giving a conference keynote, a sprint demo, a sales pitch, a lightning talk, or running a Toastmasters meeting, Podium helps you land your point and sit down on time.
